Never an overtime charge, upfront pricing from courteous, uniformed professionals providing exceptional customer service. Locally owned and operated with convenient appointment times and flexible service options. Finding a good plumber is about more than getting a quick fix—it's about finding someone who can help keep your plumbing working for years to come. At Mr. Rooter Plumbing, our plumbers are all licensed, bonded, and insured, so homeowners can feel confident about entrusting their plumbing repairs to us. More importantly, our plumbers are as courteous as they are highly trained, making our service the most stress-free experience you'll ever have with a plumber.

"Mr. Rooter unethically dishonest the technician michael and his assistant had come to repair the main valve as well as a leakage due to a faulty toilet pump. the toilet pump valve needed to be replaced. michael asked me if they could come back after the part (under warranty) had arrived. we told them that our contractor could do the replacement. michael told me that the replacement part had been ordered. I was a bit surprised as of how quick the part was ordered (within a few minutes), but thought maybe he had inside connections to do that much quicker than I could. after waiting for almost 4 weeks, the part never came. I contacted customer service via email. sharon responded and told me that michael had ordered the part again. it would be delivered to their office, and they asked me again if they could come out for installation. I told them that wouldn’t be needed as our contractor would be doing that. I asked them to let me know when the part had arrived, so that our contractor could go to their office to pick it up. after waiting for 3 weeks, the part still never came. I contacted sharon again. she said that the order had been shipped to our house. what? they told me earlier that it had been ordered and would be shipped to their office. now it had been shipped to our house? notice how the story had changed? sharon’s last email to me was on may 15th. I had contacted her twice (on may 18th and may 22nd) asking for the part number so that I could contact the manufacturer. we had to figure out the part number (which was the main reason why we contacted Mr. Rooter’s customer service in the first place), and contacted the manufacturer. they said that they never got any request to send a replacement part to our home address. it was when I realized that michael had never ordered the part in the first place. it is because we had declined for them to come back again for the installation, thus no reason for them to order the part. we are beyond disgusted that we had to wait more than 2 months for a part that never came. and with their empty promises of having ordered the part. to us, that was unethically dishonest (because we had declined their offer to come over to do the part replacement). they could have given us the part number and asked us to make an order ourselves instead of waiting for nothing."

We are a small family owned and operated business serving the Pearland and greater Houston area since 1980. We offer fast, friendly, and honest service at a fair price. Our motto has always been, "If we can't fix it...nobody can." Give us a shot to earn your business! AL

"I can't say enough good things about Al's Plumbing Company. They're a local, family-owned company with fair pricing, integrity, reliability and expertise. What started out as a wet sidewalk quickly escalated to a rising mound in my yard and my M.U.D. district having to shut the water to my house due to a leak in the main water pipe to my house. After an exhausting search of big and small plumbing companies and getting price quotes ranging from $1,500 - $7,000 to replace the entire main water pipe (which everyone seemed set to do) I settled with Al's Plumbing Company. I liked the way they explained what my potential problem could be, and they offered a reasonable price quote right off the bat. They were also skeptical that it was the entire main water pipe going bad and suspected that the problem was only at the connection where the water was pooling. Even though it was a weekend and there was a threat of a tropical storm hitting the area the very next day, they made me a priority job since we had no water service available to the house. They showed up early this morning, did some digging, and found my problem. Not only did they not have to replace the entire main water line as some other companies were telling me, they found that the installer of my sprinkler system (from 8 years ago) actually cut the adapter piece (to the main water line) a little short, causing the already precarious connection to eventually loosen and blow off, causing my current situation. They replaced the faulty adapter with a new one, tested the water line again and verified that there were no more leaks. These days, it's very hard to find a reliable company to do house work/repairs. Al's Plumbing Company provides honest, efficient work. They are very thorough with their explanations and will not oversell you like some other companies. Both Al and his guys were a pleasure to work with, and I'm glad to say that I have a reliable, local plumbing company I can now keep in my back pocket for any work I need done and would not hesitate to recommend them to others. Thanks Al and team!"

FAQs for sewer cleaning projects in Houston, TX

In most states, companies that perform sewer cleaning services don’t need specific licensing, but you should always ensure you hire a licensed and certified plumber to get the work done. You can use our state licensing tool to check whether the potential sewer cleaning company holds a plumber’s certification and license. Hiring a certified sewer cleaning services guarantees that the work will be done safely, there won’t be additional damage done to your home, and the problem will be fixed.

The average cost to snake your main sewer line is around $250 for a simple snake. Most sewer line specialists charge between $45 and $200 per hour for main sewer line snaking, so the time involved plays a major role. The price you’ll pay will depend on the severity of the clog, the item causing the backup, how long it takes to remove the item, and more. A more severe issue that requires unclogging a main sewer line will cost $3,100 on average.

There are a few signs of a clog in your main sewer line that you should keep in mind.

Common signs of a sewer line clog:

  • Multiple fixtures in your home drain slowly

  • Drains in your home gurgle during or after draining

  • Water backs up into your sewer line cleanout

  • You notice foul odors in your home

The best way to confirm that your main sewer line is clogged is to hire a professional plumber to assess the situation and use a camera to inspect the inside.

In most cases, drain cleaners will not clear a clogged sewer line, and they’re likely to damage your plumbing. Sewer lines are several inches wide, meaning any material that clogs it will need to be large. Drain cleaner can work on small clogs, but it usually won’t clear a larger one in a sewer main. Drain cleaners can also easily damage and corrode your plumbing with prolonged contact, and a clog will keep the cleaner in contact with the pipes for an extended period. Hire a professional sewer cleaner instead for a safe fix.

You should not attempt to snake your sewer yourself. Accessing and snaking your sewer requires heavy-duty equipment, and while renting is possible, misusing it can damage your sewer main and leave you with very expensive repair costs, not to mention potential environmental issues and severe water damage. Accessing your sewer also exposes you to hazardous sewer gasses, and failing to seal the sewer properly after work can be very dangerous. It’s always best to hire a professional sewer cleaner near you to handle this type of work.
